I agree that it is something to see them put on weight and start to thrive. Bella went into surgery at 2.2 pounds. At her one month post op, she was a little over three pounds. We are thrilled to see it.
There are a few different ways of doing the surgery as far as methods go, but I could have sworn that mine said it would take at least a couple of months before the shunt would close. That being said, her shunt was really large so that might play into that extra time...
